Useful information on Paraguay
General: Paraguay, officially the Republic of Paraguay, is a landlocked country in South America. It is bordered by Argentina to the south and southwest, Brazil to the east and northeast, and Bolivia to the northwest. As of 2009 the population (concentrated in the southern part of the country) was estimated at 6.3 million. Most of the population are 'mestizos' (mixed, people of mixed Spanish and native American descent) and are distributed unevenly throughout the country. The vast majority of the people live in the eastern region, most within 160 kilometres of Asuncion, the capital and largest city. The Chaco, which accounts for about 60% of the territory, is home to less than 2% of the population. Paraguay gained independence from Spain in 1811. International telephone country code: +595, Internet country code: .py, Electricity voltage: 220V frequency 50 Hz, Electrical outlet: Type C European 2-pin, Time zone: -4 GMT (Paraguay does use daylight saving time)
Languages: The official languages are Spanish and Guarani, both being widely spoken in the country.
Climate: The local climate ranges from subtropical to temperate, with substantial rainfall in the eastern portions, though becoming semi-arid in the far west.
Major cities: Asunción (Capital city), Ciudad del Este, San Lorenzo, Luque, Capiatá, Lambaré, Fernando de la Mora, Limpio Central, Ñemby Central, Encarnación
Major airports: (City served and name of airport)
- Asuncion / Luque, Silvio Pettirossi International Airport (ASU)
- Ciudad del Este / Minga Guazu, Guarani International Airport (AGT)
- Mariscal Estigarribia, Dr. Luis Maria Argaña International Airport (ESG)
- Pedro Juan Caballero, Dr. Augusto Roberto Fuster International Airport (PJC)
- Pilar, Carlos Miguel Jimenez Airport (PIL)
Silvio Pettirossi Airport (ASU) is located about 15km from the centre, or about 30 minutes drive (+/- 10 minutes depending on traffic). Direct flights from Europe or the US are not available. European and American carriers fly to Asuncion via Sao Paulo (Brazil) and Buenos Aires (Argentina).
Taxis: Taxis are the most efficient and reliable form of transportation in Paraguay. Taxis are expensive compared to other services in Paraguay, and only in Asuncion they use meters. Outside Asuncion make sure you agree on a price before you get into the cab. You can hail a taxi on the street or get one from a taxi rank, found near major hotels or in the city centre. Most taxi drivers do not speak English and it can be difficult to find a taxi at night, so it is advisable to order a taxi through the hotel or restaurant and ask them to explain to the taxi driver where you want to go.
Currency: The national currency unit of Paraguay is the Paraguayan Guarani (PYG), plural Guaranies. The symbol for PYG can be written G. The guarani was divided into 100 centimos but, because of inflation, centimos are no longer in use. The Paraguay currency is available in only paper form. The denominations of the guarani are 1000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 50000 and 100000 guaranies. The guarani is currently the least valued currency unit in the Americas. At some stage in 2011, the Paraguayan guarani is expected to be revalued as the Nuevo guarani (PYN) in the ratio of 1000:1. The approximate exchange rate on 1st February 2011 was: 1 Euro = 6346 PYG, 1 US$ = 4635 PYG, 1 GB£ = 7365 PYG.
Money: Traveller's cheques are not widely used. ATMs are widely available, many accepting American Express, Cirrus, Maestro and Visa cards. You may be asked to provide identification, such as a passport, if paying for items with a credit or debit card. When exchanging money, false banknotes are common so it is advisable that you use registered banks or bureaux de change. There are plenty of banks and money exchange companies in the commercial area in the city centre of Asuncion and in shopping centres in Villa Morra. There are no restrictions on the import or export of local or foreign currency.
Casinos: Gambling in Paraguay is legal in the casinos only. There are just a few casinos and only in the major cities. Tourists and locals visit the casinos alike. The minimum gambling age in Paraguay is 18. The same applies for alcoholic drinks. A valid passport or ID is required to enter a casino.

Despite the fact that Paraguay is a small South American country, the country is visited and toured regularly because of its landlocked, swampland, timberland, savanna, scrubland, and unsettled wilderness features, and the Gran Chaco. Concurrently, the gambling industry is an additional feature of Paraguay.

History of Casinos in Paraguay

From the government of Spain, the Republic of Paraguay gained full independence in the year 1811. Unfortunately, Paraguay suffered for a century after its independence. This can be attributed to the isolationism dictatorship administrations that ruled the country for that century.

Even worse, the six-year-old Paraguayan War (from 1864 to 1870) made more than 50 percent of the whole population casualties. In addition, Argentina and Brazil claimed about 25 percent of Paraguay’s land mass.

Different levels and types of horror wrecked the country for about 120 years, until 1993 when the first series of democratic elections were held and respected in Paraguay. In 1994, Mercosur — a trade bloc — was established in partnership with Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay.

In 1997, the country was in a spirit of buttressing its economy and society, so the Law No. 1016 was introduced and passed. In accordance, the ComisiÓn Nacional de Juegos de Azar (CONAJZAR) was created as the regulatory body pertaining all activities and facilities of gambling in Paraguay.

While all forms—literally—of gambling are legal and allowed in all regions of Paraguay, casinos can only be operated in Alto Paraná, AsunciÓn, Caaguazú, Central, Cordillera, Itapúa, and San Pedro. Accordingly, the gambling industry of Paraguay is not as impressive as its counterparts of other South American countries. The CONAJZAR could not — and have not been able to — attract big investors and hotels to build casinos in Paraguay.

Current Gambling Climate

The CONAJZAR is officially tasked with the licensing, auditing, monitoring, and regulation of gambling facilities and activities in Paraguay. Therefore, gambling and participating in any casino activity is flawlessly legal. However, the number of casinos in Paraguay — when compared to other South American countries — is a major drawback. The total number of casinos fully operational within the length and breadth of the country is just nine.

Most activities and facilities of gambling are particularly popular in Paraguay. While it is highly recommended to stick with the big names in the capital of AsunciÓn, other places are esteemed as well. The environment provided is mostly inviting, exciting and calming for citizens, residents and tourists.

Casinos in Paraguay by Area

As mentioned earlier, there is a total of nine gambling facilities spread throughout six cities in Paraguay. Yacht & Golf Club Paraguayo is located in Lambare while San Bernardino Country Club & Hotel Acuario is located in — as the name suggests — San Bernardino.

The Gran Casino de Itaipu and the Hotel Casino Acaray are both situated in Ciudad del Este. Casino Amambay Hotel is located in Pedro Juan Caballero while Casino Carnaval is located in Encarnacion. The capital city of Paraguay, Asunción, offers a racetrack (Hipódromo de Asunción) and two casinos (Hotel Guarani Splendor and Worest Casino – Asunción). Worest Casino – Asunción is the largest casino in Asunción and the whole of Paraguay.

Types of Casinos in Paraguay

As expected, most forms of casinos are offered in Paraguay. In fact, the most absurd gambling activity — bloodsport — is currently legal in Paraguay. Traditional casinos offer a variety of games and machines such as poker, slot machines, craps, roulette, blackjack, etc.

However, poker is a major hotspot in Paraguay, and games like Texas Hold’em, Stud Poker and Caribbean Stud Poker are widely played. Additionally, there are specific bingo halls in Paraguay — most famously the Bingo Candilejas. Further, most casinos and other gambling facilities are attached to large hotels or resorts.

The country also features a state lottery and a horse racing track. The lottery is provided by a company called Ganemax and authorized by the state government. So, the lottery is a monopolized activity in Paraguay — similar to other South American countries.
